[ChaosButterfly8]

what fun!

[tanakaus]

hola,el liquido es el te con el algin verdad?? pero que es lo q introduce en el interior,vamos,de que es el ravioli? gracias.

[mistyk07]

uno de los envases contiene cloruro de calcio y el otro agua limpia para enjuagar, el liquido de color naranja contiene alginato de sodio (algin), este reacciona al contacto con el cloruro de calcio y se forma la esferificacion...

i wish i had this set :(

[Lausolange38]

[LordStinkyFinger]

what chemicals are used to do this awesomeness? and are they fond in regular stores?

[jbrowngators]

the sodium alginate does not dissolve unless h20 is warm, but it must be cold to make spheres. Still working on it. Very frustrating!

[anarchocyclist]

110-130'F for dissolving, 90' F for forming seems to work best for me. Let me know.

[p3rs0nan0ngrata]

Dissolve the alginate and let it stand overnight.

[jbrowngators]

If you let it stand over night it will solidify and you'll lose the desired liquid center. If you're looking for a solid sphere just use agar agar and drop it into cold vegetable or canola oil. Make sure the oil is pretty much flavorless. Bloom the agar and boil it. Bring back to room temp and drop into oil. Drain on a paper towel. Enjoy!

[p3rs0nan0ngrata]

I was referring to the liquid that the spheres are dropped in to form.

If you want a liquid centre, but don't plan on serving the spheres straight away, drop a calcium mix into an alginate solution (reverse spherification). These spheres can be served hot and won't continue to solidify once they're washed off.

[jbrowngators]

Thanks for the advice. What temps for the alginate and calcium respectively if doing reverse spherification?

[pablogonzalez35]

bullshit!! sodium alginate can be dissolved in hot or cold liquid, you have to do the spheres in cold but you can heat them before boiling..

[drmofcali4niktun]

so why not dissolve it in warm water, refrigerate the resulting substance and THEN use it...

[jslhernandez2266]

would be easy if you had an immersion circulator. it keeps liquids at a consistent temperature to .09 of a degree F. I done hear tell it's mighty expensive however.

[Care4alot]

Wow, It's Amazing

Is it all without heating?

Still wondering how to do this,

Guess have to search more for "el Bulli"

[drmofcali4niktun]

it's called molecular gastronomy.
